The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify which of the given options is not a negation of the statement "A natural number is greater than zero." ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Original Statement**: - The original statement is: "A natural number is greater than zero." - This statement is true for all natural numbers, as natural numbers start from 1 (1, 2, 3, ...). 2. **Identify the Negation**: - The negation of a statement is the opposite of that statement. - The negation of "A natural number is greater than zero" would be: "A natural number is not greater than zero." - This means that either the natural number is less than or equal to zero. 3. **Examine the Options**: - We need to evaluate the given options to see which one is not a negation of the original statement. - Let's denote the options as: - Option A: "A natural number is not greater than zero." - Option B: "It is false that a natural number is greater than zero." - Option C: "It is false that a natural number is not greater than zero." 4. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Option A**: This is the direct negation we identified earlier. (Negation) - **Option B**: "It is false that a natural number is greater than zero" also implies that the natural number is not greater than zero. (Negation) - **Option C**: "It is false that a natural number is not greater than zero" means that the natural number is indeed greater than zero. This is a positive statement and not a negation of the original statement. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the option that is not a negation of the original statement is **Option C**: "It is false that a natural number is not greater than zero." ### Final Answer: **Option C: It is false that a natural number is not greater than zero.** ---
